Fuck it · 2:13pm Aug 5th, 2016
I just saw season 6 up on Netflix. I've been using the excuse that I don't watch cable to not watch MLP because it just depressed me. It's a great show, and I like it, it just depresses me because I have waifu problems. Every time I see Fluttershy and hear that sweet little voice... or heaven forbid if she starts singing. My heart just melts when I hear her sing.
Waifu problems keep me away from this show. But I can't really make up any excuses for not watching the show mow with the newest episodes on Netflix. And with the new EG movie coming out, and with me writing so many EG fics, practically all of my stories, I think I have a duty here.
So waifu problems or not, FUCK IT. Before work, while I do school work, I'm going to watch the show. As much as I can before I have to leave for work. I'm going to power through it. I need to. I might end up crying on my blog a bit, but I'll make it brief if it does happen. It probably will. Maybe I can watch some Futurama to cheer me up afterwards or something.
And if when I see Fluttershy, I'll just do what I do with every single crush I've had in the past: admire from afar with her not knowing I exist. I'll be proud of her from afar, because that's all I can do. At least if she sings, I can be assured that I can sing too, so that's something right?
I'm just gonna swallow my pride, throw on a hoodie, drink a frappacino, and just watch while I work. Hoodie in summer, I know, but hoodies make me feel safe. I like hiding my skin. I haven't put on shorts at all this summer just because I'm that insecure.
I don't want to, but fuck it. I need to. I'm in season 5 now, after crusaders of the lost mark. That's only like 20 episodes right?
Whatever. I need to do it. I've put it off for long enough.
Sorry for any crying that may occur later.
You haven't been watching season 6 because you have a crush on Fluttershy that depresses you because she isn't real?
Its okay. Feel free to vent your emotions. We'll listen.
4133066 It's pathetic, I know
I don't intend for myself to feel sad when I watch the show or see her... it just happens.
Whatever...
4133080 No, it's fine, I just wanted to be sure I wasn't misunderstanding anything.
I'd advise you to try and rationalize this situation. Think about it. She is a fictional character. Logic over emotion.
I'm really bad at this sort of thing.
It's natural to fall infatuated to a character that isn't real because its the fictional one that seem so perfect. Everything you want in a partner is so easily displayed in an idea that when faced with the concept, seems too good to be true. And it is. It isn't true. For anyone to find someone that would be as perfect as fluttershy would be the luckiest man on earth. But you need to realize the differences of IRL and in a Childs tv show made to have almost perfect characters. I have fallen infatuated with fluttershy as well but I know that she isn't real, no matter how much I would want her to be. Not that id deserve her anyways. Just take it step by step, you'll see that you will get over the fictionality that is the show and move on.

4133130 thanks for your helpful words. If only it were that easy...
4133149 Sometimes I wish it was easy. But you don't have to worry. We're all here for you if you need us.
4133149 again, I believe that you will get over this faster than you think. But I guess the fact you had made fanfics on what I can only assume to be your ideal fantasy of being with fluttershy would lead me to believe your case of 'waifu' might be a little more sever than mine. Sorry if I am not helping a lot, I'm no psychologist.
4133175 well, you're right. It is my fantasy. That's why I started fanfiction in the first place.
4133182 you'll be fine as long as you are at least trying to get better. If you do nothing but wallow it will take a lot longer. And be more painful probably. Keep in mind you are not the only one with such a problem, and you are far from the last. They get over it, so can you. Only a matter of time and effort.
oh jeep Nordryd, nah justo kidding, I dont really know how strong tour waifu problems is but it sounds heavy, dont evento worry because you'll find love some day and waifu will be forgotten and sorry for bad english or short motivational speech but im writing at phone and its PAINFULL!!!!!
4133188 he is right and if it makes you feel better ThE waifu problemas you have, ive lived it with twi, rarity, rd, and fluttershy, but i overcame it i dont wanna write how because phone = pain and well...
I'm no therapist, although one would think watching Sweets on Bones would make me into one,
but I think I'll just go with what 4133130 said. Take it step by step, and go from there.
I can understand your pain on multiple levels. It's why I don't what the show either. Being like this is hard, since the one you are in love with doesn't even exist.
I have to pretend mine exists though. Whenever I try to "become normal" and just accept that all of them are fake, things get dark for me. Really quickly.
Good luck out there, buddy.
For how long has this been a thing? Did you only recently start having feelings like this for Fluttershy?
4133541 It's been a problem for a while. But I don't want to talk about it right now. I have to work soon, and I don't want to go in depressed.

I'm not really good at inspiring people with my words, but I don't want you to worry, bro. Soon enough, you'll meet someone who loves you and only you for who you are, and these feelings will just be forgotten, given enough time. I'm not really sure if that was the best thing to say or the best way to put it, but the bottom line is that you'll feel better. Just don't worry about a thing, bro. ^~^
